Market regulation and productivity: The case of the Canadian Wheat Board

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Changes to regulatory environments influence firm‐level incentives, which can move the productivity frontier or reposition firms within an existing frontier. Estimating causal effects of policy changes requires a credible counterfactual for productivity in the absence of policy change.

Harvesting benefits: Exploring the effects of second‐best policies on enhancing soil organic carbon stocks in agriculture

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural subsidies can be an effective policy tool to enhance soil organic carbon sequestration. This paper assesses the effectiveness of a second‐best hypothetical policy which subsidizes additional canola hectares optimally for each soil zone in Saskatchewan in an effort to increase soil organic carbon.

Flax domestication processes as inferred from genome-wide SNP data

open access: yesScientific Reports
Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is one of the founder crops domesticated for oil and fiber uses in the Near-Eastern Fertile Crescent, but its domestication history remains largely elusive.

Curating Spaces: Showcasing Indigenous Identity Through Collaborative Art Practices at a University Campus

open access: yesCurator: The Museum Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Within Aotearoa New Zealand there is a growing body of evidence which shows that embedding cultural elements within student experience is a key contribution to the educational success of Māori and Pasifika students. This article describes how the Waipapa Taumata Rau University of Auckland Art Collection team collaborates with indigenous ...

The Place for Form in Wollheim's Lectures on Formalism and Pictorial Organization

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract At the time of his death, Richard Wollheim was writing a short book on Formalism and Pictorial Organization. Much of it, but by no means all of it, had been published before (it has come out posthumously in its entirety in late 2025). Here I do two things. First, I have provided a rather detailed exegesis concentrating on the parts of the book

Genome‐wide identification of olfactory receptor and odorant‐binding protein gene families and their roles in Heliothine chemosensory evolution

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Genome‐wide systematic annotation identified 81 odorant receptors (ORs) and 49 odorant‐binding proteins (OBPs) in the tobacco budworm, Chloridea virescens. Phylogenetic analyses revealed chemosensory gene diversification in Heliothinae and extensive lineage‐specific duplications in C.

Thermoset and thermoplastic polymer composites reinforced with flax fiber: Properties and application—A review

open access: yesSPE Polymers
Flax fibers are a viable material for creating sustainable composites since they have mechanical qualities similar to those of synthetic fibers. Because of their unique hydrophilicity and strong mechanical properties, flax fibers should be taken into ...

Phenotypic detection of flax plants based on improved Flax-YOLOv5

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Accurate detection and counting of flax plant organs are crucial for obtaining phenotypic data and are the cornerstone of flax variety selection and management strategies. In this study, a Flax-YOLOv5 model is proposed for obtaining flax plant phenotypic data. Based on the solid foundation of the original YOLOv5x feature extraction network, the network
